Best uses for a Hydrogen Vent?


Recommended Posts

I got lucky in my new world, found a Hydrogen Vent near my starting area by cycle 7, I realize this is very advantageous but as a fairly new player I am not sure what the best use for this vent would be in the early game. Only thing I can think of is being able to rely more on hydrogen generators for power and later on use the hydrogen for cooling purposes, but is there anything else I can do with the vent early on to gain an advantage? This is the first gas vent I have discovered since I started playing so I have no previous experience in the matter.

H2 vents are usually very hot,  so you don't want to try and use it directly for cooing setups.  If the output mass is high enough then you can pipe it directly to h2 generators.  100g/s = 800 watts and with automation you can get by with even less gas. Great thing is that h2 gens don't have any waste and will consume the heat with the gas.

All it takes to cool the hydrogen itself is a 20-40x20-40 cube + some wheezeworts

its not that hard
